She is direct and strong, which helps her power through defenders to progress play. In tight situations, she'll look for a pocket of space to operate freely to play a pass or shoot. Her shooting is her strongest suit. Especially when shooting from distance, her shots are difficult for the goalkeeper to keep out. She gets plenty of goals from free kicks, and not just ones close to the goal either. Her free kick goal catalogue shows us the impressive number of goals she has scored from remarkable distances. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["384865"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6adebdd341305"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Sophia is an intelligent central midfield talent who has the qualities to play as a defensive midfielder as well. Her positioning helps her get to plays, both offensive and defensive, on time and effectively. Offensively, she plays passes that keep her team moving. She asks for the ball and makes herself available in any pocket of space she can find around her. Defensively, she steps to attackers really well. She either intercepts or anticipates plays and recycles possession for her team with swift movements. Her passing, again, is fantastic. She has great vision to both make plays and create chances.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">Attackers</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["416301"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6adebdd34137f"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Gwyneth is one of the players out of Western NC with the most potential that I've seen so far. The left winger loves to play, and you can tell that, especially when she has the ball at her feet in attack. She'll take on her marker and come out on top as many times as she wants. Drifting out wide is where she devastates the opposition the most. She likes to do so behind their back, without them noticing. Her speed allows her to create distance in no time. Inside the box, she becomes synonymous with a chance taken. Her shooting is fantastic when she has the opportunity to take a clean shot. Her positioning is just as good when she needs to pounce on a loose ball. Chance creation comes to her easily too, with the space she creates for herself.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["344038"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6adebdd3413f5"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Anna is a very bright prospect as a left winger. Fast and direct, she makes herself a really difficult player to defend. When she's in space, she runs in behind with the ball and leaves markers in the dust. In one-on-ones, she likes to take her markers on, especially if she's in or close to the box. She'll drive the ball centrally out from the wing too to create plays when needed. Her shots are fantastic to watch. The technique she has to shoot is great and crucial to have at this stage. Her shots are difficult for the keeper to keep out when they are on target, making her a deadly winger in front of goal. When she has to create chances, she does so just as easily. She has no problems finding a teammate in a prime shooting position, even if she is in a difficult position herself.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
